harav lav katav basefer shehu haya migiborey hayaldut shelo.
Rabbi Lau wrote in his book that he was one of his childhood heroes.
lamrot shelo hikarti et avrum umeolam lo raiti afilu temuna shelo, hu hafach lihyot gam gibor sheli.
Though I never met Avrum and never even saw a photo of him, he became my hero too.
yom rishon baboker,
Sunday morning
shuv ani nizkar,
I remember again
baaliot lirushalayim,
Climbing up to Jerusalem
ketzat matchil lihyot li kar,
It's starting to get a little cold for me
ani choshev al hamilim,
I think about the words
sheal shaar habarzel,
Above the Iron Gate
kevar ovru shanim meaz,
Years have passed since then
tamid ani zocher...
I always remember...
yom rishon baboker
Sunday morning
uktzat kashe linshom,
And breathing is a little hard
keshereycha heashan,
When the smell of smoke
maale bi nishkachot,
Revives forgotten things in me
mehair hayeshana,
From the old city
mibeyt hakeneset hagadol,
From the great synagogue
mehayeled hakatan
From the small child
metzitz mehachalon..
Peeking from the window
vechulam mesaperim,
And everyone tells stories
al avrum hagadol,
About the great Avrum
sheim uvmikre timad,
That if by chance you should stumble
az hu yarutz
He would run
veyigrom lecha shuv laamod,
And make you stand tall again
hu nachal mitgaber,
He is an overflowing stream
shomer haneshamot,
Guardian of souls
keshekulam noflim lemata,
When everyone falls below
eych ata mamshich litzod?
How do you keep on walking?
yom rishon baboker,
Sunday morning
shuv ani nizkar,
I remember again
ani omed al yad naftali,
I stand beside Naftali
mitpalelim al hamachar,
We pray for tomorrow
ani noshek laavanim,
I kiss the stones
shemavtichot gam zeman acher,
That promise another time will come
im kol rega shenigmar,
With every moment that ends
margish chofshi yoter..
I feel more free
vechulam mesaperim,
And everyone tells stories
al avrum hagadol,
About the great Avrum
sheim uvmikre timad,
That if by chance you should stumble
az hu yarutz
He would run
veyigrom lecha shuv laamod,
And make you stand tall again
hu nachal mitgaber,
He is an overflowing stream
shomer haneshamot,
Guardian of souls
keshekulam noflim lemata,
When everyone falls below
eych ata mamshich litzod?
How do you keep on walking?
vaani kore aleycha,
And I read about you
mitoch sefer zichronot
From a book of memories
veulay ata shomea,
And maybe you are listening
ulay rak bemachshavot
Maybe only in thoughts
veim ken, az taane li,
And if so, then answer me
al achat mini rabot,
On one among many things
keshekulam noflim lemata,
When everyone falls below
keshekulam noflim lemata,
When everyone falls below
keshekulam noflim lemata,
When everyone falls below
eych ata, mamshich litzod?
How do you, keep on walking?
yom rishon, haerev,
Sunday evening
matchil lehacharish,
It begins to grow silent
bediuk azavnu et hakotel,
We just left the Western Wall
tzoadim betzad hakevish,
Walking along the side of the road
halev hamerusak,
The broken heart
leat matchil lehitchaber,
Slowly begins to knit together
et "kol adam legoralo"
"To each his own fate"
matzlicha leforer
I manage to crumble
